I learnt one-foot idling today!

Good job! I'm still working on regular idling, and at this point, I am
not even close to getting it.:o

ironic that u just posted a threead about this. i just learned it a few
days ago too. and i dont ever practice things like idling - i just knew
how to i dle and did a 1 ft idle on my first try. i thought of doing
this cuz for some reason i was thinknig of that freestyle video that
tyler made a month or so ago and he did it.

My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I.. got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window.. and I can't see at all
And even if I could it'll all be gray, but your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that it's not so bad, it's not so bad.. bad... bad

Great job!

I had the experience just this week of 1-foot idling for the 1st time.
I remember trying it before and thinking "nope.", but this time it felt
really easy. 1-foot WW, huh? I haven't gotten the 2-footed variety
down yet. This winter promises to hold some serious skill practice
time (the club's gym is the perfect place to work on stuff). Summer
has been mostly recreational touring/Muni-ing.

Congrats on the new skill!

If you haven't already, try to mount into OF idling and OF idle on your
"non-dominant" side as soon as possible.

Me neither. I wasn't making much progress learning 2fww, and since all
I really want to learn is gliding, I figured I'd just skip that step
and go to 1fww. In a very short time, I've almost caught up with my 2f
distance (about 10-15 feet.)
BTW, the WW was the only thing I was doing on my Muni, not the 20"

Learnt is correct spelling.
I'm English.
Just because you Americans can't spell doesn't mean the rest of the
world can't.

Learn't?

An apostrophe only appears as a replacement for a removed letter.

E.g
Has Not - Hasn't
Do Not - Don't

Therefore Learn't would be 'Lear Not', which of course makes no sense
at all.

Loose.

Well, as of today, I can do all the tricks up to level 4 (though not
consistantly), and about half of level 5.
I definately think I'm a 20" convert. 😄
Giving back this uni today to my friend.
My freestyle arrives Friday. 🙂

Congrats on the 1FT idle. I'm assuming this is with your other foot on
the crown?
Which makes the next stop 1FT idling with foot extended.

I hate it when people use apostrophes for pluralisation. It's like
fruit salad without banana.
It's just not right.

Yeah, I finally got the hang of 1-foot foot-on-crown riding (I learnt
to ride 1 foot off-crown), but started learning foot-on-crown when I
got my KH24". It's easier on the 20", though--not so high.

I took unibrier's advice and started working on mount-to-1foot as the
next step. I got it once today.

I still can't ride left-footed. I really should start working on that
soon, too.
So much to learn....so much homework...🙁
